An Advocate For Animal Rights, Randeep Hooda Named Ambassador For Migratory Species

Randeep Hooda is a great actor and time and again he has proved that. Even in his latest release, Love Aaj Kal, which failed to impress the audiences, his cameo is the saviour, people say. Randeep's performance is being loved by critics as well as audiences.

His fans know that he advocates wildlife protection in real life. Randeep has often tweeted about animal cruelty. He has even adopted nine horses. He is indeed an ardent animal lover.

So much so, that some time ago, he tweeted to Piyush Goyal, Minister of Railways and Coal, about the poor state of railway infrastructure that was causing elephant deaths.

Dear sirs @PiyushGoyal @narendramodi @drharshvardhan @nitin_gadkari ji all infrastructure development has to consider its a dire necessity & if so then it¡¯s sensitivity towards voiceless creatures who have withstood many empires & are now at our mercy..it can¡¯t be just kilometres https://t.co/lRlnD9dCbn

Now, he has been named as the ambassador for migratory species along with Internationally-renowned conservationist Ian Redmond OBE, award-winning explorer and environmentalist Sacha Dench.

They have both been named as CMS Ambassadors for Migratory Species until 2023 under the redesigned Ambassadors Programme launched at CMS COP13.

Ambassadors can either be global celebrities who have expressed a desire to contribute to raising awareness of migratory species and the work of the convention, or prominent individuals from conservation, science, literature, or other fields who can mobilize attention for specific issues or species.

"Migration is a part and parcel of the life cycle of many species. It is not only important for them but also important for our planet. They make this world a healthy and more diverse place. Many of them are under threat and we need to work jointly across the globe to protect them," Randeep Hooda said.

Aquatic species are often the least discussed but undertake amazing migrations. Biodiversity underwater needs to be conserved. "As an Ambassador, I hope to take the conversation about conservation from conferences to local cooperation," Hooda added.
